Just off the west coast of the Dominion Federation and across a long bridge connecting the surface city to the Foundation Colony is a massive elevator that connects the Dominion Federation to the Foundation Space Colony. The Foundation Space Colony is large cylindrical rotating space habitat 8 km in diameter and 32 km long that is located in Kwandrivia's Lagrange 3. The Colony has six equal-area stripes that run the length of the cylinder; three are transparent windows, three are habitable "land" surfaces. Furthermore, an outer agricultural ring, 16 km in radius, rotates at a different speed to support farming. The habitat's industrial manufacturing block is located in the middle, to allow for minimized gravity for some manufacturing processes. Along each of the habitable land strips are artificial lands built to mimic the world which the people of the Foundation Colony Come from. Thick forest's of maple trees, towering pine trees, lush farmers fields and many more Earth-like environments can be found here. Sunlight is directed into the colony using massive wing-like mirrors. These mirrors are closed when the colony is moving or it is under attack.
